Ran well for Jamie on chase debut. Original quote: "Early Morning Rain has won a bumper and two novice hurdles. She came up just short in a couple of listed contests last season, and we'll try to get some black type into her at some point this season.  However, we need to get her off…

Ran on well to take third and another nice TQ View return. Original quote: "Goes without saying a hot race with a lot of early-season reputations on the line. Jersey Lady won her first race, a bumper at Ludlow, she showed a great attitude that day she got a bit tapped for toe turning into…

Great winner for Henry and the team. Original quote: "Former winning Pointer but is yet to win over hurdles from 7 runs but has shown ability - ran the useful Main Fact to 4 lenghts at Warwick back in January. Ran well for a time on his return run at Uttoxeter last month and has…

Ran on well and only just failed to get up. One to keep on the right side of. Original quote: "He has been very consistent all year and rarely has he run a bad race. We felt after last start he may benefit from a further step up in trip and this will be his…

Great win for Scu's Cross Country horse! Original quote: "Won this in 2017 so loves this track and this X Country test, but a very very strong renewal this year with the likes of Tiger Roll and Easysland in the race. Therefore, most of us are running out of the handicap so plenty to find…

Ran on well to take third. Original quote: "Tricky little race with many chances, but the horse is well and should still have more to come. Ran well behind the useful Rouge Vif (3rd) here last month - that was a very pleasing run so if running as well as he did last time, should…

Nice run from Gay's horse. Original quote: "A bit of a mix up when entered this horse as wasn't actually meant to be in this race as a first preference. A lot of unexposed runners in the race but the return to Chelmsford for us looks a big positive - we are the only CD…

Jumped really well - another top TQ View winner this month! Original quote: "Another good chance in this race after running in a much better race last time should be more at home here. Won well in August on his return and despite being 5lbs higher here we've booked Connor Brace to take off 3lbs…

Stayed on well to take second for Tim Vaughan. Original quote: "Top effort last time when a close third at Carlisle - travelled well for much of the way in that race and jumped better too as he's had a habit of hitting a fence or two in the past. Same mark here today and…

Solid third from Gary's horse. Original quote: "CRYSTAL LAD is in good shape after a disappointing run last time. Although not well in with some of the others in this Selling Hurdle - but well after a small break and should still have every chance today, with the Newland and Murphy runners the obvious dangers."

Another solid e/w run from Charlie's horse. Original quote: "Hated Newcastle last time out so put a line through that race. Step up to a mile is a plus and he will be much better suited to going around a bend. He is well drawn today too so should go well."

Top effort from Ed's horse. Original quote: "Maysong runs in the 6.25 at Newcastle over 7 furlongs. The ground was very heavy at Doncaster last start and didn’t seem to be to his liking so a return to the All Weather we thought may see the best of him again. Richard Fahey’s horse look to…

Top training performance from Oliver. Original quote: "Prince is a horse with plenty of ability but he has been a nightmare to train, he’s had all sorts of issues mostly niggly things but he did have a tendon strain in August 2018 which required a twelve month spell on the sidelines to recover. He takes…

No chance with the hot favourite but still a solid run from Gay's horse. Original quote: "Only average runs on the flat recently but is back over the sticks here and is 1-from-1 over hurdles after winning at Ludlow back in Feb. As a result of winning though does have to give weight away to…

Another nice winner for the in-form Snowden camp. Original quote: "Mustang Alpha was placed in two novice hurdles over 2m, but disappointed on handicap debut when stepped up to 3m. Back down to 2m3f last time, he ran well in a Class 2 handicap at this track last month. Up 2 furlongs here is fine…

Well done to the Dickin yard and a nice TQ View winner on the day too! Original quote: "An easy winner last time, he should go close again if turning up in the same mood! He seems well at home and hoping for another big run."

Ran on well to take second and should be winning soon. Original quote: "Fair performer over the years and has settled in well with us. Sliding mark should give him and e/w chance based on past form."

Placed for Scott and the team. Original quote: "Decent and tough sprinter that is never far away in his races - last win came off a pound lower mark on the turf in Sept but is also a CD winner here at Southwell. David Probert rode him for that last win too so is back…

Went close for Scott and the team. Original quote: "122nd career run here and as we all know loves it here at Southwell. 12 runs without a win though and now 8 years-old but the positive is he's down to a mark of 68 and considering he won last Sept off 80 would certainly make…

Nice run from Gay's horse. Original quote: "Second runner in the race for us and our better chance. Has run okay here in the past and ran a blinder to be a close second at Wolves last time out. A bit to find with the Dixon and Scott horses on the ratings, but we get…
